About
Welcome to Crushed Raspberry Designs, where we take inspiration from the late, great Pete Woods - a graphic design wizard who was all about making design & products look fabulous - (My Dad)!
Crushed Raspberry Designs was started in late 2024 after wanting to create a more sustainable lifestyle, reduce the single-use plastic & design the perfect tote bag, and share products that make people smile.
We started to create & craft handmade water-repellent tote bags that are tougher than your morning coffee and stylish enough to make you feel a million pounds. Whether you're hitting the gym, grocery shopping, or just trying to look busy at work.
From there, the ideas kept flowing, and Crushed Raspberry Designs has continued to expand its collection with functional, bold, playful designs that stand out from the crowd.
We design and create from our studio just off the Bath Road, in Cheltenham, where most of the ideas are born (and occasionally scribbled down before we forget them!).
A distinctive range of handmade and original products, including sarcastic and humorous prints and wall art, mugs, functional tote bags & canvas bags, pouches, cushions, handmade Indian throws, and personalised gifts.
Some of the work is bold, humorous and intentionally different, and we love seeing people connect with pieces in person at markets and events.
Our journey began with the search for the perfect 'Everyday' TOTE bag, and now we are excited to introduce:
